They still have bridge plates over 4?! it was shut down when I was commuting to New Haven out of that ‘terminal’ (😉 I watched your GCT to New Haven Super Express video). Four has been shut down for about fours now! I assumed it was shut down because of catenary rework. But that cannot be the case anymore. 🤔 I used to sit at Bridgeport just to watch the trains go by. I miss doing that. Thank you for the wonderful memories. 😀
This is my former railroad (retired). Even though the train was on track 2- to gain access, you have to board from track FOUR. customers are still instructed to board trains from the track 4 platform, which is why tk 4 is displayed. In addition, they are not called ‘gang planks’ on the railroad, they are called bridge plates. FYI.✌🏾👍🏽
Hi Can you make a video of the former yard in Waterbury? I'm curious to learn more about this, and whether this can be used for a new freight or passenger hub center.

Gang planks. Just used it as an expression metaphorically
@@3985uprr no worries my friend! Just sharing. Love what you do!👍🏽
@@edwardadams7619 I will use the term bridge plates from now on
@edwardadams
''bridge plates'' _ I learned something, there
5:26 it sounds like the train is using 2 e-bells at the same time. Interesting
ACS64s usually do ring both bells at the same time. very unique feature.
5:09 how come that track is never used ever since those gang planks are there, is there a back story to it?
0:46 they may be crap but they have GREAT K3LAs.!!!!
I agree there. You hear how good they are on my Norwalk to Danbury Road.
5:16
Did you film the ferry ride?
What boat did you get?
No. Grand Republic up and Park City back.
@@3985uprr okay ✅

Always love the action on the NEC!!!
good catch 🚋
This was the day me and my bf got off at bridge port to take the fairy over to Long Island
I've been to Bridgeport. Plenty of action. Thanks Tim💚😀
Great video, what happened to the MBTA videos you posted? I sadly never got a chance to see the Middleboro one.
I decided to take them down unfortunately. I won’t elaborate.
@@3985uprrI Understand and respect your response. Keep up the great content!
Bridgeport is actually my amtrak station. I live not far from thwre
Why did you delete the last video? In Boston
I decided to for several reasons. I won’t elaborate but it was for the good of all.
@@3985uprr okay, I just hope that we could get more podcast talking/videos and I thought it was a cool dynamic
Had you been there a few hours later you would've seen 228 and a 7 car consist
Probably an equipment move.
@@3985uprrIt was doing a Waterbury rotation on this day.
@@3985uprr It ran up the branch as a revenue service. 60 minutes late due to mechanical problems
Those red stripes on the toothpaste tubes add a little something, no?
